Energy firm E.ON is looking to axe around 500 workers in the UK as part its latest cost cutting drive. The company - currently the third largest energy supplier in the UK - said it plans to reduce numbers across non-customer facing departments as part of ongoing efforts to transform how it operates. This includes a greater focus on efficiency and improved service for customers. E.ON currently employs more than 9,400 people across the UK. It comes just weeks after the energy giant announced a 6% price rise for thousands of customers - one of the biggest increases in the energy market so far this year.

Savings worth an estimated £145 million were denied to drivers in the past month because fuel retailers failed to pass on cuts in wholesale prices, a campaign group has claimed. A litre of petrol or diesel rose in price by around 1p in the four weeks to July 23 even though wholesale prices declined by as much as 3p, according to FairFuelUK. UK drivers paid £2.20 more for every typical tank of fuel over the period - a total of around £145 million - because the drop in wholesale prices was not passed on, analysis by the group shows. FairFuelUK wants an independent "PumpWatch" body to be set up to stop the "exploitation" of drivers. Campaign founder Howard Cox told the Press Association: "Gluttonous fuel supply chain businesses and speculators are hiding behind Brexit's media dominance to fleece drivers of millions at the pumps.

A suspected illegal immigrant murdered his colleague with an axe then redecorated the carpet shop where they worked to try and cover his tracks. Imran Muhammad, 31, hid Seyed Khan's body inside a shopping trolley and wheeled him to a cemetery. Muhammad painted over blood marks in their workplace and concocted a story about how Mr Khan had disappeared to tell his relatives. Police interviews with the victim's family revealed he had caught Muhammad stealing from the shop and that Muhammad had begged for him not to tell the owner. While Muhammad had never admitted this, it is strongly suspected this was the motive for the attack, police said. It was also established that Muhammad was illegally living in the UK and he feared he would be deported back to Pakistan if he came to the attention of the authorities.
